I swapped the 1.8 in my 75 for a 2056 with carbs, I cant seem to figure out the wiring?
I have the 12 pin harness connected to starter and back up lights, 1/2 the dual relay, I have a brown wire, a green and brown wire and three black (2 tied together) wires. I also have white wire coming out of the harness at the 12 pin cinnector with a tab (female) connector, where does that go? The blacks go to the coil, does it matter what side? where do the others go? I also have the battery to the starter cable, ground is grounded, there is also a red wire tied into my positive cable. anyone ever write a list of how to convert to carbs? thanks, Matt |

lets see if I can remember this.
You are dealing with two wiring harness's here. the main harness has the red wire that goes to the positive terminal on the battery...that is the main power for the ignition and fuse panel. The engine bay wiring basically plugs in to the motor and FI system. You will need to go to the classics forum to find the thread that shows how to use the fuel pump wiring while running carbs. The power lead and the tach lead go to the positive side of the coil. The negative side of the coil goes to the distributor. You need to hook up the oil pressure sender (just below the distributor) aside from that, you seem to have the rest covered. Rich |
